On Sunday, August 10th, the St. Thekla family gathered to honor Reader Dylan Thomas Smith as he gets ready to leave us to attend the Hellenic College & Holy Cross Greek School of Theology in Brookline, Massachusetts.  We know that we will miss his support of our church (as well as his smiling face), but we wish him the best as he continues with his studies.  At the conclusion of Divine Liturgy, Fr. John presented Dylan a newly hand-written icon of St. Thomas.  During the luncheon Dylan also received several photos and gifts from his church family.
